EMERG fundraising events
We put on events throughout the year to support our programs for students, teachers, and veterans. Most of our events happen around AMPP Annual Conference, but other events such as the Fall Classic Golf Tournament, happen throughout the year. If you would like to get involved with any of our events from a participation or sponsorship standpoint, please contact Heather Lowry for more details.
